RE: How does CC invoke ant?

>> 1) Do you have any sample config files/snippets that you can share?

build.bat:

set PROJECT_HOME=%~dp0
set ANT_HOME=%PROJECT_HOME%tools\ant
%ANT_HOME%\bin\ant.bat %*

config.xml:

  <ant antworkingdir="projectDir"
       antscript="c:/path/to/projectDir/build.bat"
       target="cc-target" />

probably something either with your antscript path/name or its contents.
You can use DEBUG to see exactly the command-line CC is using and then see
if you can reproduce the result at the command-prompt.

>> 3) Also, I only get the following when using antfile:

>> 2003-12-18 10:58:08,000 [BuildQueueThread] ERROR Project          -

>>  1071766687984log.xml : skip value is negative

the log.xml file doesn't have a <build element in the first 150 characters,
meaning it probably isn't a valid ant log file.  Again, if you run the same
command as you see w/DEBUG you should be able to view the log.xml and see
what it contains.

one possible problem is that your antscript isn't passing all the
command-line args to ant...
